Humphrey Bogart

Humphrey Bogart became for the audience the embodiment of the classic hero of films genre noir. Brutality, magnetism, bright play on the screens allowed the performer to get the title of the best actor in the history of American cinema. Images created by a man, and today fascinate the audience. The main role of Bogart is a lonely cynic, in which strong feelings awaken over time.

The actor was born on December 25, 1899 in New York City in a religious family. The date, marked Humphrey's birthday, was considered controversial. Journalists assumed that it was invented by a film company to strengthen the romanticization of the image of the American favorite artist. The publications wrote that in fact Bogart was born not on Christmas Day, but on January 23, 1899.

The fact that the boy's birth certificate was not available was also a problem. However, new York Census data for 1900 were found, indicating that the child was indeed a "Christmas present" for his family. Humphrey's father, Belmont DeForrest, worked as a surgeon, doing heart and lung surgery.

Maud's mother is a well-known advertising illustrator. The woman was independent, earned twice as much as her husband, which was unusual for that time. The family had two other children, girls Frances and Catherine Elizabeth. Parents did not spoil the kids with a weasel, which the actor later admitted in an interview.

The boy received primary education in private schools, not showing much success in the course of his studies. Belmont and Maud arranged for their son to join Phillips Academy, hoping that after her the young man would be able to enter Yale University. However, in 1918 the young man was expelled from the school.

The personal life of the Hollywood artist aroused great interest among the public. The performer was married four times, and each of them chose his wife-actress. Humphrey married Helen Menken for his first marriage. The young couple married in 1926, and in 1927 already divorced, but retained a friendship. The artist was not alone for long: in 1928 the man married Mary Phillips.

The lady was sharp, short-tempered, and the union lasted only until 1937. By that time Bogart was already popular, starred in Hollywood, and the obstinate wife did not want to leave New York. The singer's relationship with his 3rd wife, Mayo Meto, did not develop. The actress suffered from alcoholism, as well as arranged violent scenes of jealousy. The marriage lasted from 1938 to 1945.

Only with the 4th wife, the charming Lauren Bacall, Humphrey found family happiness. The couple met on the set of "Have and Not Have" in 1944. The man immediately became fascinated with a beautiful, slender blonde with high cheekbones and green eyes. Between the actors, there was not only a passion but also a deep emotional connection.

The couple could not meet openly because Bogart was married. Having parted after filming, the lovers exchanged romantic letters. After the 2nd joint picture with Bacall - detective "Deep Sleep" - the performer decided to divorce. Lauren's wedding took place on May 21, 1945. On the surviving photos the newlyweds look at each other tenderly.

After the celebration, the couple settled in Los Angeles, continuing to play in the movies. In 1949, his wife gave Humphrey a son Stephen, and in 1952 a girl named Leslie Howard was born. The couple lived in a happy marriage until the artist's death in 1957.

Although acting was considered in his family a low and unserious occupation, the young man was drawn to the stage. The guy helped to find a job in the theater, a friend, Bill Brady, whose father worked as a theater producer. In the early 1920s, Bogart participated in a show on Broadway, where he plays the role of romantic heroes of the second plan.

The film made its screen debut in the film "Dancing City". It was followed by other paintings, notably "The Petrified Forest," where the man starred with star Bette Davis. The film was produced by Leslie Howard, after whom the actor later named his daughter. Humphrey's early filmography was dominated by category B projects , detectives, in which he played a courageous cynic endowed with self-irony and nobility.

The artist himself was not happy with the work. Only after the release of the film "The Maltese Falcon", playing the main role of a detective there, Bogart felt confident. Significant in his career was the picture "Casablanca", where the partner Of God (so nicknamed the actor in Hollywood) was the brilliant Ingrid Bergman. The Oscar-winning tape allowed Humphrey to take number one on the Warner Brothers star list.

In 1951, director John Huston invited the performer to star in the film "African queen." Katharine Hepburn worked with him on the set. The film was shot in Africa, the film crew did not have normal conditions for living and eating. Soon many contracted dysentery. The disease passed only gods and Houston - friends ate only canned food and drank a lot of alcohol.

The difficulties were exacerbated by the hot climate. However, the film turned out to be expressive, exciting, and Humphrey won an Oscar for the image of Charlie Olnatt. In the last years of his life, the actor managed to star in the romantic comedy "Sabrina" with Audrey Hepburn, the drama "Barefoot Countess", where his partner was the beautiful Ava Gardner, and other paintings.

By the mid-50s, the performer's health was rapidly deteriorating: the man was constantly coughing and struggling to eat. Bogart died on January 14, 1957. On the eve of leaving, he weighed 36 kg (at a height of 173 cm). The cause of death was oesophageal cancer. The actor's body was cremated and the urn with ashes buried in a grave in Forest Lawn Cemetery.
